Chapter 28

Jimmy:

We followed Sarah as she managed her way through... what looks like to be their drainage.

"How do you even know where you're going?" Maverick asked as he looked around.

"I don't really know. Its like something is telling me to." She shrugged. Maverick and I stopped dead in our tracks and looked at each other.

"What do you mean?" I asked as I walked up to her.

"Do you feel anything?" Maverick asked, now fully alert.

"I just feel its right. Nothing to worry about." She said as she turned to look at us.

"You sure?" Maverick asked. She nodded, "Yes."

She continued leading the way and we followed.

I looked at Maverick, and he had his gun ready for anything that got in the way. Then I looked at myself.

I laughed.

Can you believe? A talk show host? A late night talk show host being all badass and matrix-y.

"Matrix-y? Really? Good job, Neo." Maverick smirked.

"You read that?" I asked.

"What do you think? Learn how to close your mind, kid." He chuckled.

"Kid? Oh yeah, I forgot. You're older." I retorted with a smile and with that, I received the finger.

Sarah:

I looked around once more. I think were in the right path. It just felt right. I dont know why, it just did. It felt like something was telling me that it was.

I glanced behind me to check if the two men were still behind me. They still were. Good.

I took a turn and that was when I saw it. The big door Chrome was talking about.

I stopped and stared at it.

"Why ar- oh." Maverick said as he stood beside me.

"That's a BIG door." Jimmy commented.

"Uh huh." I agreed.

"Look for a vent." Maverick said as he started looking around.

As I turned around, I noticed a white figure by the corner and in a blink of an eye, it was gone.

Not again.

I took a deep breath and followed it.

I raised my gun, just in case things go wrong.

"What are you doin, little sissy?" A voice asked.

"Little sissy?" I asked.

Then a man, maybe a few years older than me, appeared from nowhere.

"You're all grown up." He smiled faintly.

"Who are you?" I asked as I cocked my head.

He sighed, "Im your brother, Sarah."

What. The actual. Hell?

"Sorry, what?" I asked with a sarcastic chuckle.

"I know, I know. Its pretty hard to take in." He said, he looked like someone. He looked familiar.

"Its true, Sarah. He is your brother." Another voice chirped in, this voice happens to be my mother's. I turned around and saw her walking up to us.

"Does Maverick know about this?" I asked.

"Trevor." Mom said with a nod.

Mom shook her head, Trevor sighed.
